Seduced by her rescuer…
Desperate to escape a predatory suitor, Laurel Forrester has no one to turn to in Rome but her stepbrother, Cristiano Ferrero. A dangerous chemistry has always burned between them, even if he believes her to be exactly like her manipulative mother. And trapped in his luxurious penthouse, Laurel realizes how vulnerable she is to his raw magnetism…
Cristiano desires Laurel just as much as he despises her. Intent on getting her out of his system, he proposes one night of sin. But Laurel’s surprising inexperience only increases his thirst for her, and makes Cristiano determined to entice her to surrender again…and again!
He thinks she’s a scheming gold-digger, she thinks he’s cruel and heartless … but each time they’ve crossed paths, they’ve felt the tingling of attraction! The plot grabbed my attention from the very first page and each tidbit more of information from their past led to a fulfilling story.
Nurse Laurel Forrester never expected a quick trip to Rome at her mother’s request to turn into her running down the halls of a hotel trying to get away from a would-be attacker! She’s shocked when the room she stumbles into holds none other than her former step-brother whom she hasn’t seen in over a decade!
Owner of the hotel Cristiano Ferrero saw Laurel in need of help and though he loathes her family, he saw fit to help her escape … for the moment. He’s sure she’s up to the same manipulations that her mother is famous for, but he’s always had a strong sexual attraction for her, so why not keep her as his very own for the night to get the lust out of their system? When he finds out he’s her first, that just might lead him to want to keep her forever!
